[0002] Submersible reverse circulation machines are primarily suitable for pile foundation projects. The main working principle of the power head is to use a direct-drive drill bit, with the upper end connected to a slide bar that slides up and down for stability. The power source can be driven electrically or hydraulically, with the gearbox driven by a reducer. A submersible mud pump is also added, and the output torque can be adjusted by a frequency converter according to geological conditions.

[0003] Improvements have been made to the construction methods and energy consumption of the two existing rotary drilling rigs and reverse circulation drilling rigs on the market. During the construction process, the rotary drilling rig is more efficient than the reverse circulation drilling rig, and one operator can complete the construction work. However, at the same time, the construction cost and energy consumption increase exponentially, and the drilling depth is limited by the power of the machine. Repeated drilling, lifting soil, and dumping soil are required during the construction process.

[0004] The output power of reverse circulation drilling rig is smaller than that of rotary drilling rig, the drilling depth is not restricted, the construction cost is low, and there is no need to lift or dump soil, etc. However, the labor consumption during construction is too high, the workload is heavy, and the construction efficiency is low. Three to four people are required to operate one device during work, and operations such as removing rods, installing rods, and vacuuming need to be repeated, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the efficiency is far lower than that of rotary drilling rig.

[0005] For this purpose, a submersible reverse circulation drilling rig power head is required. Utility Model Content

The outer sleeve of the transmission hub is installed with a slewing bearing, and the gear box is provided axially with the slewing bearing to drive the transmission hub through the gear box. The reducer is arranged on the upper part of the gear box, and the reducer and the gear box are installed through the flower piece transmission shaft. The flower piece transmission shaft is meshed with the slewing bearing shaft. The bottom of the transmission hub is installed with a drill bit through a flange, and the upper part of the transmission hub is connected to the submersible pump assembly through a flange.

[0008] Preferably, the upper portion of the driving hub is sealed with the slewing bearing via an oil seal, and an upper sealing member is installed outside the oil seal.

[0009] Preferably, the lower part of the transmission hub is mounted inside the drilling rig power head via a bearing, and a lower seal is provided between the transmission hub and the bearing.

[0010] Preferably, at least two gear housings are distributed axially on the slewing bearing.

[0011] Preferably, the transmission hub is fixedly mounted on the slewing bearing by providing a fixing plate.

[0012] Preferably, the surface of the transmission hub located at the lower part of the fixed plate is arranged as shaft layer one and shaft layer two from top to bottom, the top end face of shaft layer one is sealed against the bottom of the slewing support, the shaft layer two is installed with an interference fit with the bearing, and a lower seal is provided between the transmission hub located at the bottom of shaft layer two and the bearing.

[0013] Preferably, a refueling port is provided on the top of the drilling rig power head and an oil drain port is provided on the bottom.

[0014] In summary, the present invention provides a submersible reverse circulation drilling rig power head, which is somewhere in between the two products. It can solve the high cost and high energy consumption of rotary drilling, and also solve the labor consumption problem of reverse circulation drilling rigs. The submersible working principle is the extension and contraction of the sliding rod, combined with the floating source operation of the rotary drilling rig. The submersible mud pump is used to discharge slag during drilling, eliminating the need to repeat the drilling, lifting and dumping operations of the rotary drilling rig, and the need to repeat the operations of the reverse circulation drilling rig such as removing and installing rods and vacuuming. This greatly reduces labor, construction costs, and energy consumption, and increases work efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
